Profile:
He played his initial first class match as a military cadet for
Services against West Indies in the opening fixture of the 1958-59
tour and made it memorable by getting 35 and 100 not out. In the same
season, in his first Ranji Trophy match, he took six for 32 against
Delhi with his leg break-googly bowling. But Sengupta's career
faltered after this encouraging start. Based on the promise he held
out, he was played as opening batsman in the Madras Test against West
Indies the same season. But he failed getting one and eight and that
remained the extent of his Test career. In a decade long first class
career, Sengupta scored 1695 runs (26.48) with two centuries and took
21 wickets (31.14). (Partab Ramchand)
